Updated to 8.2.4 accidentally. Will update noticable changes below:

1. Vibration after using fingerprint sensor to unlock is gone.
2. TBC
*
The no vibration is a new feature on 8.2.
How's the ROM? I'm on 8.1.2 still deciding whether to update or not.

Hmm... The most important thing is that my phone doesn't shut down randomly anymore.

Battery normal? I got OTA notification for past few weeks I think. Initially, the update was 1.5GB. Recent week, only 6++MB. Is that normal?

I want to buy new phone. What's the different between redmi note 4 and 4x? Which one is better? Saw the phone at Lazada and the price range +-600...thank you
*
Not many differences in term of specs. Both same chipset.
4:
Bluetooth 4.1
All metal construction
IR blaster on middle at the top(means case will be different for both)
Color choices

4x:
Bluetooth 4.2
Slightly plastic at top and bottom iinm
IR blaster on the side at top.
Color choices

They both probably have different supplier for camera sensor though(Samsung, Sony, etc.)

since January i think... i suspect a restart would work... but no way to boot... will go back for warranty la...

reboot as in restart? I rarely use the physical lock/on-off button after enabling Quick Ball(similar to ios Touch Assistant).
You can enable it at Setting>Additional Setting>Shortcut Menu>Quick Ball.

"Quick Ball in simple words is a tough assistant with combination of five unique shortcut (helps to do quick functions and tasks easily) that user can customize also."
One of the shortcuts offered is "power button" or "power". You'll get what I mean. Play with the setting. I have Lock, Screenshot, Back, Recent App and Power shortcut on mine. Very convenient.

Btw, if the phone is off then, how do you turn it on?

yea, restart... its just that one time, while the phone is on, the physical power and volume down button is not responding at all... after battery died and recharge, it was working again, not sure why...

thanks for the info, quick ball is useful for me as well... help me to lessen the use of physical buttons...

Yep. Power offers 4 option iinm. Shut Down and Restart are two of them. Forgot to include that before. sweat.gif

And btw, do check out this interesting thread I found. Might be a good way to determine whether your physical button is having hardware or software problem.

How much did you paid for it? Where is it?
Memory didn't serve me well. Forgot about the phone in the pocket and the end. cry.gif
Swapped LCD and did nothing.
I'm afraid the mobo(IC display/light IC) is the guilt party here.

Nahhh. Rather had Redmi Note 4 instead. Just a little bit topup. Redmi 4 Prime to Redmi 4X is a downgrade. Only the screen size is the thing that I look forward to. Other than that, 4 Note by a country mile.

Added: Better deal here

Redmi 4X is slightly smaller and lighter than the Prime. The Prime also doesn't support the 850 lte band.

The upcoming Redmi 5 is probably going to be lighter and slimmer as well since it is rumored to come with a 3000mAh battery.
*
Smaller than Prime? Glad to know that! I might go for it now before migrating to Redmi 5 later(sounds promising so far). Sacrificing FHD resolution but I just prefer compact size phone. I believe the camera is a bit better(0.2 bigger aperture) than the Prime. And most importantly, software updates. The Prime seems in the lowest in pecking order of Redmi 4 variants in term software support.

Sorry 850 lte is under which telco network ?

Seller stated that it's official Xiaomi Malaysia warranty in the comment section. Means you can send it to any Xiaomi service centres in Malaysia for warranty(at least that's what I understand about official local warranty is).

Any known issues? Btw I just get my Redmi 4 Prime fixed at a shop in Subang, called Fast Technology. You can try asking them. Seems reliable too me. You'll find it right away in Google Maps.

Anyone using Redmi 4 prime? What rom you're using? Thinking of playing around with custom rom (extra phone).
